The Virginia Symphony Orchestra and Chorus present German Requiem

from Arts Conversations · host WHRO Public Media

For the first time in history, the Virginia Symphony Orchestra and Chorus presents the “German Requiem” by Johannes Brahms. For this very personal work, Brahms adapted texts which did not follow the traditional form of the Requiem, and in doing so, created one of the most moving choral compositions in the literature. Anthony McSpadden spoke with conductor JoAnn Falletta about performing this masterpiece.
